Wife poisons husband to death, cut off his penis

A 33-year-old woman has allegedly killed her husband that she married 8 years ago. The incident which took place in Zumbagwe, a remote community in Karu Local Government Area, Nasarawa State happened after the woman, Janet Ekpe, accused her husband, Sunday Ekpe, of having an affair with her best friend, Hellen.

According to the woman, they were happily married at first and God blessed them with two kids, but things took a bad turn since the birth of their second child. Their interesting sex story which made them have sex everyday, anywhere in their house turned to a casual thing that happened in once months. The accused added that her husband, who could take the day off at work, just for them to have sex throughout the day started giving excuses that sex is not food and that she should fantasize about the past if she had urge to have sex.

She said, “When we got married eight years ago, sex seemed to be the only thing on my husband’s mind. He was always in the mood.

“We would make love three or four times before morning, and when he woke up, he would be ready to continue.

“There were days he skipped work and we would spend the whole day making love.

“We had sex in the bathroom, in the kitchen and anywhere it caught our fancy in the house.

“I became used to constant sex through him and also became the envy of my close friends, including my best friend who he later fell in love with.

“Whenever we shared stories of our exploits in bed, my friends felt I had the best man and jokingly begged me to allow them to have my husband just for a day because their husbands could not satisfy them in bed.

“But shortly after we had our two kids, I began to notice his disinterest in sex with me and his performance level began to drop.

“While we were having sex on a regular basis before, it came down to two times in a week and later became so bad that we could stay for three or four months without making love.

“Initially, I was not bothered because I felt that he would come around it after the babies were weaned. But I was wrong. He began to starve me of sex for months on end.

“It got to the point that I would be begging him to sleep with me but he would rebuff my requests.

“At times, he would tell me I should relive the moments we had sex every day and wallow in that fantasy.

“When I pestered him further, he told me he was no more interested in sex as he had had enough to last him a lifetime.

“He even told me that sex is not food and that if I felt so sex starved, I should get a man to satisfy me.

“I reported the matter to our church and the pastor summoned him, but he could not convince our pastor.

“I reported the matter to his parents in the village and some of his relations around, but he ignored their invitation.

The story got worse when Janet found out that her husband was having an affair with her widow friend, Hellen. He was busy satisfying hellen while Janet kept feeling sex starved at home. She added that she felt like single mother and the fact that he was doing that with her best friend, hurt her the more. When she was sure that he won’t change nor consider her feelings, she decided to poison him and cut his manhood in order to show why she killed him.

“I used to love and trust my husband but he turned me into something I never knew I could become: a murderer. I killed him. I poisoned him and watched him die in our bedroom, painfully.

“I mixed a deadly, colourless, tasteless and odourless substance in his meal and drinking water which destroyed his intestines immediately.

“He cried and struggled uncontrollably after taking the meal. He gave up after an hour and I used a sharp blade and knife to chop off his penis, place it on his chest as evidence of what killed him.

Meanwhile, the deceased brother, Mr Adakole Onoja, confirmed that Ekpe lived a dangerous life. He said that while the woman might not be right for killing him, he said she is a human being too and that may be how God has destined Ekpe to end his life. All efforts made to reach out to Hellen proved futile till the time of filing this report.
